Pet food recall expands
The Vancouver Sun
Wed 11 Apr 2007
Menu Foods Ltd., whose pet food is linked to the deaths of 16 cats and dogs, expanded a three-week-old recall after finding tainted wheat gluten at a plant in Canada. The company said Tuesday that it found one shipment of wheat gluten tainted with melamine -- a substance used to make fertilizer -- shipped from a plant in Emporia, Kansas. It didn't say how much more food it called back.
The expanded recall includes Your Pet and Publix cat food. Mars Inc.'s Canadian pet food unit Tuesday recalled one brand of cat food made by Menu Foods in Ontario. The unit, Royal Canin Canada, said it was "completely shocked" that the wheat gluten made its way into Canada.
